Android Auto

Android Auto links your phone to the car infotainment screen and presents driving-friendly apps in a simplified layout: large buttons, few distractions and hands-free control through the Google assistant.

On the dashboard you get maps with turn-by-turn directions and traffic warnings, music and podcast playback, phone calls and messages read aloud with spoken replies. The assistant can check your calendar, set reminders and switch on a do-not-disturb mode for the duration of the trip.

It is intended for drivers whose car supports Android Auto and who use an Android phone. Maps, media and the assistant need mobile data; the connection to the car is wired or wireless depending on the vehicle.
